Swollen toe with pus and air bubbles

2018-07-21 04:20:27
For about a month I have been experiencing problems with my toe. It has gotten continuously worse with symptoms of swelling, pus, and an occasional numbing of my foot. I know it's bad to mess with it but I have been using nail clippers to cut off skin never swollen too much. And also occasionally has air bubbles below the nail. I stand all day because of work and putting pressure on my toe gives me incredible pain.
